Question & Answers

What is the width? What is shrinkage percentage? As percale does it iron well? I see gathers on her dress/nightgown so will it iron so that the gathers look nice when wearing it as a dress?

Based on our recommended wash instructions, which can be found in our help center,the shrinkage will be 3% in the warp and 5% in the weft. This irons very nicely and will hold the gathers accordingly.

Would this fabric work well for an adult peasant-type blouse? I'm not sure exactly what "percale" means.

If you have a particular pattern in mind, we can help you select the best fabric to match, just email our helpful customer service staff with the pattern number. Percale is the type of weave of this cotton fabric which makes it have an almost satin like sheen on one side of the fabric. It is a lovely soft, yet structured fabric which can suit some types of blouses.

Would this be heavy enough for throw pillow covers?

This fabric is a light weight fabric so if you are looking for something heavyweight and sturdy, perhaps try our faille or French Ticking

I just found your site, I am wanting to make a 2 piece pants/top pajama but not too heavy. I want 100% cotton but NOT see through. I am wondering whether i should use the Poplin or the percale? Or if you have a better suggestion. Flannel will be too hot.

Both articles of 100% Cotton fabric , art IC-005 Percale or artIC012 Poplin.Both fabrics are great to make pant/tops. We are offering sample swatches and recommend to order swatches and check the weight of the fabirc.

This was not my first time working with Fabrics-Store's cotton, again it was pleasantly easy to press and the grainline was nice and straight. The crisp striped cotton felt like a classic and easy combination with the Bruna pattern.

This is a child's size 3 bishop dress with smocking. The fabric was wonderful to sew upon and pressed up nicely. It was NOT particularly suitable for smocking as it is a tightly woven percale that doesn't accept hand embroidery easily. The finished dress will wear well and last through several children. I will happily use this fabric again but not for hand embroidery.
